niles
unless i missed something, and being new to this, that is a real possibility...
the chainstay length listed on the spec website states the tricross comp and sport ar the same, 440mm
the sirrus and sequopia are both shorter than that
so all things being equal, any other advice?
do you think the lbs would get me one of each to ride?
i have been our on a sirrus and a sequoia and about to try a tricross expert double that belongs to one of the staff of the lbs
this is a difficult decision
and i agree, it seems for me, being chubby and a newbie, that wider tires is a key factor
and everyone says wide tires with drop bars may be a good option
certainly drop bars give me more hand position choices, and on a more upright riding bike that would be a nice set up as far as i can tell
so seems the tricross is my bike, but i am open to any and all advice
i wonder why more folks are not seeking a similar configuration
perhaps i am focused on the wrong things(s)?
